Are we really looking for something?

Our hands get dirty,
get dirty to open the ground,
get dirty searching for gold.
One meter, two meters, three meters...
…rhythms of depth still in the darkness,
towards the sense-less center,
discerning the yellow from black,
the good from bad,
us and the others.

But is it really gold that we are looking for?
Are we really looking for something?
Our hands get dirty,
leading the inside to outside
bringing the hidden to surface
pushing bottom upwards
in daylight
under the sun,
aware that the only precious thing that prompts us to dig
is just the acrid and persistent smell of the earth.
